7The more russis Crate amps through its seven lamps (March 12 AX7, 4 EL84) and two HP 12 '. The ridiculous price of 700 euros made me crack dfinitivement. It is a pure class A amp the old with inimitable grain. Only BMOL: not supplied footswitch ... even when I put ten because this XXL amp sounds better than a clean VOX AC 30 and the same in overdrive.

USE

Simpler you die. Thou branches and it is the foot Blues Rock. Ideal with Lespaul Gibson or copying.
With the footswitch (100 euros) is dclenche the boost for solos.
So basically we have three canals: clean, overdrive, overdrive + boost for solos.

SONORITS

The sound is fat standard crmeux, attention this amp is at least 200 watts ral. So privilgier for rpetitions or on stage.
The clean channel is fantastic we can very well play the blues like Jazz. But beware this is absolutely not an amp to play the variety genre Goldman. For funk on the other hand it's great. The clean channel is absolutely not saturate even push very hard.

Overdrive is a dlice include big sound very fat old marshall. This is great.
For crazy metal, at risk of being dcevant grain is typ vintage kind Clapton "sunshine of your love"
In short it is amp blues / rock but good with a pedal Trashmaster we get to make it sound mchamment violent.

NOTICE GLOBAL

It's amp is a bomb, only regret Weight: 23 pounds and the XXL format. But to have a real tube amp that does not saturate the First attack mdiateur a little manly ...
For a fan of the good old sound, thick and powerful, it is unbeatable.
